Experimental investigation on effect of mineral admixtures on high performanc...eSAT Journals
Abstract Now a day's high performance concrete is globally used in the infrastructure industry for strong and durable structure, to produced high performance concrete various supplementary cementitious material are used as mineral admixture. This research involves the use of Fly ash, Alccofine and Silica fume at various proportions to enhance the compressive strength of high performance concrete. the investigation was carried out by replacing 10% fly ash along with 17% of alccofine and 10% fly ash along with 17% of silica fume by weight of cementitious material. To cover a wide range of compressive strength of concrete various water binder ratio (W/b) of 0.25, 0.3 and 0.35 were used. The effect of various parameters such as percentage replacement of mineral admixture, water to binder ratio and corresponding compressive strength is studied on fresh and hardened state of concrete. The study mainly consisted of establishing relation between these parameters graphically. Investigation demonstrates that alcofine performs batter than that of silica fume along with fly ash in fresh and harden state of concrete.

Development of mix design for high strength Concrete with AdmixturesIOSR Journals
This paper presents the result of mix design developed for high strength concrete with silica fume
and High range water reducing admixture (HRWR). It involves the process of determining experimentally the
most suitable concrete mixes in order to achieve the targeted mean strength. In this research work 53 grade
ordinary Portland cement, the locally available river sand, 10 mm graded coarse aggregate were selected based
on ASTM C 127 standard for determining the relative quantities and proportions for the grade of concrete M60.
For this design ACI 211.4R-93 guidelines were followed. Totally Five mixes were designed one mix was treated
as basic mix with HRWR - 0.5% without silica fume, Four mixes were designed with Micro silica quantities
varied from 5 to 9 percent weight of cementitious materials and HRWR varies between 0.6% to 0.9% with
increment of 0.1% . Each mix 2 numbers of 150mm x 300 mm cylinders were cast then kept in curing tank after
24 hours of time period. After 28 days of curing the specimens were tested and the appropriate mix proportions
were obtained.
Behavior Of Reinforce Fibrous Self Compacting Concrete Beam Strengthening Wit...IJMER
In recent years, self-compacting concrete (SCC) has gained wide use for placement in
congested reinforced concrete structures with difficult casting conditions. SCC offers several
economical and technical benefits; the use of fibers extends its possibilities. Adjustment of the
water/cement ratio and super plasticizer dosage is one of the main key properties in proportioning of
SCC mixtures. Several tests such as slump flow, V-funnel, L-box were carried out to determine
optimum parameters for the self-compatibility of mixtures. In this article Nylon 300-e3 micro synthetic
fiber and Nylon Tuff macro synthetic fiber has used in combination and the effect of fiber inclusion on
the compatibility of hybrid fiber reinforcement concrete are studied. Both the Nylon fiber hybrid with
SSC and compared to Plan SSC, Hybrid SSC. The behavior of Reinforced Concrete (RC) beams
strengthened in flexure by means of different combinations of externally bonded hybrid Glass and
Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymer (GFRP/CFRP) sheets has also studied.
study of self-compacting concrete for economical constructionTejas6957
topic is to prove that self-compacting concrete[SCC] is more cheaper than ordinary concrete in mass concrete. and we PROVED that SCC is cheaper then ordinary concrete. yes, goal is achieved.........
The project involved designing of two different types of Rigid pavements using the
AASHTOWare Pavement ME software.
1) JPCP (Jointed Plain Concrete Pavement) : It was designed as a three layered structure,
the layer distribution being as follows:
Layer 1 – PCC – 16 inch
Layer 2 – NonStabilized (Crushed gravel) – 8 inch
Layer 3 – Subgrade (A-1a) – Semi Infinite
Jointed plain concrete pavement uses contraction joints to control cracking and uses
reinforcing steel in form of dowel bars.
Transverse joint spacing is selected such that temperature and moisture stresses do not
produce intermediate cracking between joints.
This typically results in a spacing no longer than about 6.1 m (20 ft.).
2) CRCP (CONTINUOUSLY REINFORCED CONCRETE PAVEMENTS) : It was
designed as a 4 layered structure, the layer distribution being as follows:
Layer 1 – PCC – 11.3 inch
Layer 2 – Stabilized – 4 inch
Layer 3 – NonStabilized – 8 inch
Layer 4 – Subgrade – Semi infinite
CRCP is concrete pavement reinforced with continuous steel bars throughout its length.
Its design eliminates the need for transverse joints (other than at bridges and other
structures) and keeps cracks tight, resulting in a continuous, smooth-riding surface.

Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

Automobile Management System Project Report.pdfKamal Acharya
The proposed project is developed to manage the automobile in the automobile dealer company. The main module in this project is login, automobile management, customer management, sales, complaints and reports. The first module is the login. The automobile showroom owner should login to the project for usage. The username and password are verified and if it is correct, next form opens. If the username and password are not correct, it shows the error message.
When a customer search for a automobile, if the automobile is available, they will be taken to a page that shows the details of the automobile including automobile name, automobile ID, quantity, price etc. “Automobile Management System” is useful for maintaining automobiles, customers effectively and hence helps for establishing good relation between customer and automobile organization. It contains various customized modules for effectively maintaining automobiles and stock information accurately and safely.
When the automobile is sold to the customer, stock will be reduced automatically. When a new purchase is made, stock will be increased automatically. While selecting automobiles for sale, the proposed software will automatically check for total number of available stock of that particular item, if the total stock of that particular item is less than 5, software will notify the user to purchase the particular item.
Also when the user tries to sale items which are not in stock, the system will prompt the user that the stock is not enough. Customers of this system can search for a automobile; can purchase a automobile easily by selecting fast. On the other hand the stock of automobiles can be maintained perfectly by the automobile shop manager overcoming the drawbacks of existing system.
Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.
